Biography
Painter and graphic designer associated with the Krakow art community - graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow (Faculty of Graphics, 2017, Faculty of Painting (education), 2020). She works in cycles that consistently reflect her artistic development. "Synthesis", "Femina" and "Mirage" are a record of this path - from her fascination with Pure Form, through dreamy visions of femininity and painterly journeys on the border of java and dream, to reflections on the interpenetration of reality and the hidden. He explores themes of metaphysical figuration and painterly freedom, referring to the unity of form and expression. Figures, shapes and symbols are arranged in meaningful, dreamlike compositions, drawing on the poetics of dreams and the search to connect the various dimensions of reality. She creates expressive, maximalist paintings, full of symbolism and metaphysical reflection. Her paintings have been presented in an individual exhibition at the Szalom Gallery in Cracow and in group exhibitions at the National Museum in Cracow and the Malopolska Garden of Art, among others. She is also involved in animation - the Masterclass film she co-created opened the Polish Film Festival in Gdynia and was shown at international festivals. On a daily basis, she works as a graphic designer at a Krakow branding agency, but painting remains her most important means of expression - a way of experiencing and interpreting the world.
